Why are more young Canadians self-harming?
Caroline Bozanko, a Calgary psychologist who works with teens, Dr. Natasha Saunders, a pediatric researcher at SickKids, and Alex Anna, a Montreal filmmaker who made a film about their self-harm journey, discuss rising youth self-harm rates. They cover how self-injury starts and functions, recent research showing sharp increases, social media and contagion, recovery paths, and practical steps for parents and schools.
